Pasta with Cream Sauce, Peas, and Chives

Pasta with Cream Sauce, Peas, and Chives
serves: 4

Ingredients:
1 pound dried pasta
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1/2 cup whole milk
1 1/4 teaspoons kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 cup (4 ounces) grated Parmesan
1/2 cup green onions or chives

Cook the pasta according to the package directions.

Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, over medium-low heat, warm the cream, milk, salt, and pepper. Drain the pasta and add it to the cream mixture. Add the Parmesan and stir until the cheese melts and the sauce begins to thicken, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the peas, increase heat to medium, and warm until heated through, 3 minutes more. Transfer to a serving dish or individual bowls and top with the chives.
